appears out of nowhere I've had many bad experiences with this book since Kindle refused to index it several times against my attempts, with both 3.0.3 and 3.1 firmware now that it's finally finish indexing it, it doesn't let me read the last page of the book

I have no problem with other books.

Well I've finally capitulated and performed a factory reset, at least that seems to have done the trick and I can read content again, what caused the initial problem I guess we'll never know, thanks for all the advice and assistance to all concerned, hopefully that won't happen again! No real damage done apart from losing my screensaver hack, but hopefully a way around will be found with 3.1 in the not too distant future.

no good with mine. I won't try the 'Reset to Factory defaults'

Just throw that book away, Maian. I had the same with Anna Karenina. That book seemed to be doomed the minute I uploaded it to my Kindle. All kind of weird things happened after that.
What you could try: convert that same book with Calibre again from mobi to mobi and load it again to your Kindle; that is, if it is your own book. If it is one from Amazon: just call them.

no, I'm so tired after the tenth attempt. leave it there, I can read it on laptop.

This same problem happened to me, in the middle of reading one of my books on my Kindle Touch, after no changes of any kind were made. I haven't even downloaded a book in months.

I have no hacks, no other software or whatever you guys are talking about, and I only download books Wirelessly from Amazon.com. I've yet to even transfer a PDF to my kindle.

When the problem happened, my Kindle first suddenly reset itself, only after that happened it was that I couldn't open any of my books.

To me it just sounds like something hardware/software related that can only be fixed by a factory reset. Some sort of corrupt files or something of that nature that caused it to shut down in the first place. But what do I know?
